What brand(s) could these be?

The badges were attached with, it seems, 2 small screws or pins and

not a grommet. I'm guessing that narrows the possibilities somewhat.

Royce?

Maxwin? Pearl stencil early 70's to...? Cool color.

Wanted: Pearl President floor tom in Golden Grain wrap and rack tom in Tiger Eye (root beer) wrap.

I have a similar set in red, though mine was badged as U.S.Mercury. But I've seen them with CB badges,Royce,etc... The badge without grommet is fairly common for MIJ drums, many were affixed with two small nails ( like Tack nails ) The badge mark looks more oval, so that does rule out a good chunk of badges. But still leaves a good amount. Good solid set of drums though, and the color is killer.

Early Pearl Maxwin i would say.... but from the holes of the badge it must be something different!

I agree with "Maxwin" by Pearl being the most common badging for those, (also the Maxwin badges were fitted by two pins).

Cheers

Thanks for the replies.

Just did a google search on Maxwin drum badge, and the images come up rectangular with 2 brads and no grommet.

The badge area in the pics above definitely seems oval. Did Maxwin also make oval badges?

I'll go with Maxwin as well, although the badges I had on my old set were rectangle, not oval. Like this...

(This isn't my pic, just something I got quickly off Google)
